👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGene Lyth is a seasoned Software Development Engineer with eight years of experience architecting cloud-first solutions and leading technical teams, currently building at AWS in Seattle. He has a strong track record migrating and modernizing large on-premise estates to AWS—cutting backup/DR costs by 67% and reducing RTO from days to hours—while implementing custom metrics pipelines using Lambda, Kinesis, S3, and Databricks. Comfortable in hands-on roles from DevOps and Python scripting to infrastructure as code (CloudFormation) and containerization (Docker, Ansible), he blends system design with pragmatic implementation. He’s led cross-functional teams, managed budgets, and delivered complex SharePoint and application migrations with no end-user downtime. A practical problem-solver, he has a history of inventive engineering decisions (for example, using a custom class loader to shrink Android app updates from 700 MB to 40 KB). Based in Seattle and continuously pursuing cloud education, he pairs operational rigor with a curiosity for efficient, measurable systems.
